How long it lasts: This is a tricky question. If you make it well you can have this design for a few days and just make small fixtures on the edges. This time I did a bad job with this design and the marble was bumpy and lacking contrast. That's with I stayed with it one day and I moved to the Wooden Marble: Shiny (2 of 2) as soon as I got back home in the evening.
To cook this look you need:
- Three kitties
- Base coat
- Good white nail polish as base
- Brown nail polish
- Yellow nail polish
- Green nail polish
- Blue nail polish (I used three shades of blue which I think was completely useless, one can do the job!)
- Cup of water
- (Optional) Nail polish remover, cotton, toothpicks (and everything else you use to clean the mess when you make your marble nails
- Apply the base coat
- Apply two or even three layers of white nail polish. Wait to dry.
- Full the cup with water
- Put drops of the nail polishes in the water and draw lines with the toothpick
- (Optional) Wrap your hands in tape, cover the skin in hand cream or do whatever you do to prevent the mess that will follow
- Dip your nails in the cup (one hand only)
- Use the toothpick to collect the rest of the nail polish floating in the water
- Take your fingers out of the water
- Clean the nail polish from the skin
- Repeat with the other hand
- Repeat with the other hand
- Apply top coat while it is still wet because it will smoothen the bumps (if you have aby)
- Wait to dry
